Here’s a recipe for a chutney that couldn’t be easier to prepare. It needs just two ingredients-onions and red chillies. This is something I learnt from my mother. It serves as the perfect accompaniment to idlis and dosas.

Ingredients:5 medium onions, chopped7-10 red chillies2 Tbsp oilSalt

Method:Heat oil in a large pan and add the chopped onions followed by salt. Sauté for 2-3 minutes and then add the red chillies. Continue to sauté on medium heat till the onions cook down and turn soft and brown. This takes almost 20 minutes.

That's all there is to this chutney?! I have been trying to get a recipe forever. I am making this right away with dosas! My son is going to be so pleased - he always asks me to make this but I didn't have a recipe. The ones I tried earlier had too many ingredients...Oh, this is so good, and perfect timing. Thank you, thank you!

I've been waiting for this recipe ever since you mentioned you were having your mom's ulli chutney with rava dosai :) My onion chutney has urad dhal and puli but this is so simple and must taste really spicy. mmmm...

Hey TBC..was here to post comment on the pineapple pudding..got to see this chamanthi..its my fave and i learnt it from hubby's grandmom..its too delicious to resist!!! I have posted it along with dosa last week.Btw-even after reading your post of pineapple pudding, with condensed milk, i made a error, i used fresh strawberries so it hasnt set..nevertheless the taste is awesome! i used 2 tins of 90gms condensed milk, 2 1/2 tsp of cherry flavoured gelatin and 5 big st.berries...its awesome..thks for posting it..shall try pineapple too..but hunting for unflavoured gelatin...tc..tks..
